just a matter of time?
I have always believed tht if God closes one avenue.. he creates several others..
While at school.. I was always competing with Anadi for 1st Rank.. but somehow I always used to miss it by 2-3 marks, and end up coming 2nd...I still clearly remember how stymied I used to feel, when during the award function Anadi used to stand before me in the queue for prize winners..But at the same time, I thought tht may be God has some reason to make me feel this way.. May be he wants me to work harder..And I dint give up..
At the risk of sounding conceited, I was elated when in class 12th Boards, I secured a state rank in CBSE... and I remember, my only concern was tht I had defeated Anadi - finally!
When I went to BITS, the IIT disaster kept ringing in my head.. and I wasnt sure if I had made the best of my decisions to join BITS..But still I was sure tht whatever is happening is certainly
happening for good.. and there is a reason for my being here..
And I certainly do not, in any way regret my degree at BITS now!!
There were lots of incidents in college too.. when I had literally thought tht this is the end of life.. hehe.. I remember what a huge crush I had on Vinod.. and when he dint respond.. I felt like I was ruined! But nah.. I had hope.. tht this is not wht is meant to happen..
And now Vinod is perhaps teh best of my friends.. and whom I adore more than anyone! ANd honestly, I think I like it this way better :)
Time passed.. and I ended up in IBM..
Man! I remember how I was sitting in Institute Cafeteria the day the results were announced and cursing my fate as to why I got IBM, when I had actually wanted Texas Instruments! I was scribbling in ma diary.. and the only thing I wrote was - 'Everything happens for good'..
And yeah.. it was indeed! I ended up in one of the best Microelectronics team here at IBM..with just exactly the kinda work I wanted..and with a manager who is one gem of a person!
Days went by...and I now gave my MBA exams..
Even with a good score in CAT and XAT.. I dint get any calls,..
I have just missed it..I just did... :(
An year's hard work just went unnoticed..
Frankly, in the end its not abt the score..Its all about being on this side of the fence or tht side of it..
Its a ravage. It really is!! Atleast looks like it.
But something within tells me tht this is not the end.. and there is something good in it too.. though I cant figure out what...
O God, where are the other avenues?? Exactly where are they!!! :(
I am beginning to wonder whether its just a matter of time tht we adjust to whatever has happened? or is it tht everything indeed happens for good!?
